IsWritable

Indicates whether the map entry is writable for the user credentials presented to connect to Active Directory.

Syntax

bool IsWritable {get;}

Property value

Returns true if the map entry object is writable by the user, or false if the map entry object is not writable.

Discussion

This property returns a value of true if the user accessing the map entry object in Active Directory has sufficient permissions to change the entry object’s properties.

Example

The following code sample illustrates using this property in a script:

...  
'Specify the zone you want to work with  
set objZone =
cims.GetZoneByPath("LDAP://CN=qa-slovenia,CN=unix,DC=quantum,DC=net")  
'Create the Store object  
Set store = CreateObject("Centrify.DirectControl.Nis.Store")  
'Attach to the target zone  
'Provide the path to the zone and username and password.  
store.Attach objZone.ADsPath, "jae.smith", "pas\$w0rd"  
'Open the generic map type named "Workstations IDs"  
Set map = store.open("Workstations IDs")  
'Get the map entry specified  
Set entry = map.get("128.10.12.1")  
'Check whether the record is writable  
If not entry.IsWritable then  
    wScript.Echo “No write permission for this record”  
end if
